Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 832

Chapter 832: Business Opportunity
As soon as he drank the water, Xiao He’s pale face slowly regained its color. Although he was still in a coma, he no longer looked as lifeless as before.

He put the spiritual herbs powder in his pocket and went to open the door.

Seeing him coming out, Xu Bohai came over and asked, “Boss, how is my son?”

“Fortunately, the bullet passed through his thigh. I cleaned the wound and used the medicine my wife bought for me before. For the next few weeks, don’t let the wound get wet and change the bandage once every three days. Make him more bone broth and nutritious food.”

“Since the government is targeting us, inform everyone that we will cease operations until everything calms down. Starting from tomorrow, we will distribute 30 kilograms of flour, 20 kilograms of rice, 50 kilograms of coarse grains, 20 kilograms of vegetables, and 15 kilograms of meat every 10 days until work resumes.”

“Also, gave up the exposed warehouse and went to the warehouse on the mountain to get grain instead. As for the vegetables and meat, I will buy them from my second brother tonight and deliver them to the warehouse on the mountain,” Li Chenmo said.

When Xu Bohai and his wife heard this, they were both surprised. They were given more rations than they would have received for months working in the field.

After a while, Xu Bohai looked at Li Chenmo and asked, “Boss, are you planning to give everyone equal rations?”

Li Chenmo nodded and asked, “Is there any problem?”

“Boss, we have nearly five hundred people in total. If we give this ration every ten days, I’m worried that our inventory will not be enough for everyone.”

Li Chenmo patted his shoulder and said with a smile, “Brother Bohai, you don’t have to worry about this. Didn’t I tell you that I have found a reliable source of grains? Tonight, that person will send a new batch of grains and flour. With this batch, the inventory will be enough to last everyone a year, let alone a few months.”

“Just inform everyone and remind them to be more careful. The situation in the capital is still unclear, and black market middlemen have been arrested recently,” he added.

Seeing his confident smile, Xu Bohai calmed down and nodded, “Boss, leave this matter to me. I will handle the distribution matters myself.”

Li Chenmo took out five hundred yuan from his pocket, handed it to him, and said, “In a few days, take Xiao He to the hospital for a check-up.”

“Boss, this…”

“Don’t worry, no one will notice the gunshot wound by then. Even if his life is no longer in danger, we have to make sure there are no complications in the future,” Li Chenmo put the money into Xu Bohai’s pocket.

After saying that, he left Xu Bohai’s house and returned to Xie Village.

Meanwhile, in the nearest city, Houzi was sitting across from the mayor’s wife in the living room. Ever since the last time the mayor’s wife bought food for her husband’s birthday party, she had become one of their regular customers.

Looking at the unkempt man in front of her, the mayor’s wife smiled and said, “Brother Houzi, when will you open for business again?”

Houzi smiled at her and said, “Madam, you know, it’s not that I don’t want to sell things to you. However, the current situation is really not safe for me to continue my business. If I insist on selling things and get caught, it will not just be me, but everyone may be dragged into this dirty water.”

After hearing what he said, the mayor’s wife nodded and said, “I understand your situation. Since you can’t open a store, how about I help you sell things?”

When Houzi heard this, his eyes flashed for a moment and then returned to normal. He looked at her and asked doubtfully, “What do you mean, madam?”

“Houzi, let me tell you the truth. After eating the food and ingredients I bought from you, my family can no longer eat the ingredients sold in the supply store,” she sighed.

“So, I wonder if you can sell these ingredients directly to me?” she asked.

Houzi hesitated for a long time, sighed, and said, “Madam, I’m really sorry. However, the supplier only sells raw materials in large quantities, and the price is not cheap at all. Therefore, even if I want to sell to you, the supplier will refuse my purchase if I don’t reach the minimum purchase requirement.”

Hearing this, the mayor’s wife fell silent. After a while, she said, “Then if I can get more orders, can you buy them?”

“Well, it depends on the quantity of the order. As long as the minimum order is met, the supplier may be willing to take the risk and sell the ingredients to me. However, the current food shortage has also affected prices. So, I can’t guarantee that the price will be the same as before,” Houzi said.

The mayor’s wife heard this and nodded to express understanding. Not to mention such high-quality raw materials, even the low-quality grain sold in state-owned supply stores has recently increased in price.

“What’s the minimum purchase quantity?” the mayor’s wife asked.

Houzi thought for a while and said, “The minimum purchase quantity of rice and white flour is 350 kilograms. The minimum purchase quantity of coarse grains is 500 kilograms.”

“The minimum purchase quantity of vegetables and fruits is 200 kilograms. As for other things, such as sauces, wild honey, or other seasonings, the minimum purchase quantity is 50 bottles.”

“How about tonic wine and whitening cream?” asked the mayor’s wife.

“The minimum purchase quantity of tonic wine is 50 liters. The minimum purchase quantity of whitening cream is 50 cans,” Houzi added.

The mayor’s wife wrote down the minimum purchase amount and said, “I will ask my friends to see if I can get the minimum purchase amount.”

After listening to her words, Houzi stood up and said, “Then I will wait for your good news, madam.”
